Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Black & Decker FC350 InfraWave Speed-Cooking Countertop Oven with Rotisserie
Customer Review: It looks nice & makes good toast if you turn the bread over.
Summary: 3 Stars
The unit has a nice look & I've figured out how to make good toast with it, but whenever I've tried cooking a piece of chicken in it it fills the kitchen up with smoke. It's not the unit itself or the chicken that is smoking, I believe it's probably the fat/oil drippings vaporizing on the included baking tray. As I've only used boneless/skinless in it, I can only imagine how bad it might be with a regular piece of chicken. The fact that the door doesn't seal allows all of the smoke to escape into the kitchen as the food is cooking, however, I don't recall there ever being any smoke in my regular convection oven when cooking anything, including chicken. The toasting function doesn't work very well if you just try to toast something with a single toast cycle because it toasts much more on the top than the bottom. To combat this I've discovered that the way to go is to turn the toast value down (I use 1) & complete one cycle, then turn the bread over & do a second cycle, that way both sides of the bread get the intense heat from the top element. The bottom elements just don't do the same thing as the top & there doesn't seem to be a way to make the bottom elements run a little longer on a single cycle. I've also tried cooking frozen hamburger patties in it. It works, but it takes longer than my foreman grill & doesn't leave the meat in a very good condition. The foreman grill cooks a frozen hamburger in about 4-5 minutes well done & in excellent condition. I suppose the foreman grill might also cook a frozen piece of chicken but I've never tried it. Basically for me it is just an expensive toaster that requires input halfway through (turning it over & running a second cycle). Unfortunately anything else that it can do seems to be better done by my oven, foreman grill or microwave. Might be good for quickly reheating something that you want more crispy, but my convection microwave oven also has a browning feature, though I've never needed to use it.
